A review by pamiverson
The Art of Fielding by Chad Harbach

5.0

The best novel about baseball since The Brothers K. Set in a small Midwestern college, with fully realized characters and interesting situations -- I like when I can realize afterwards why the author included certain events that I didn't realize in advance would tie together. Makes me want to re-read Moby Dick and study maps of the fly-over states -- I think this place and the people inhabiting it are going to stay with me for awhile...
